Corbett Court, The Brow, Burgess Hill, RH15 9DD

Corbett Court is a Retirement Living Plus development by McCarthy & Stone for people aged 70 and over (consideration for 60- 65 years will be considered case by case). You may know this kind of scheme as assisted living. For many families, the biggest draw is knowing that Mum, Dad or a grandparent is living somewhere safe and well run. The management team is on site 24 hours a day, and staff carry out daily welfare checks. If something isn't quite right, someone will notice, even on days when the family can't pop round. There's also a 24-hour emergency call system. Residents can wear a personal pendant, and call points are in the hall, bedroom, and bathroom, so help is never far away wherever they are in the flat. A camera entry system at the front door lets residents see who's there before they let anyone in. This one-bedroom apartment is on the third floor, with a lift to every floor. The best feature is the west-facing balcony, which opens straight off the living room. It has room for a bistro table and chairs and looks out across the South Downs. It's a lovely spot for a cup of tea after lunch or a summer evening outside. The flat is in good order throughout, and the layout is easy to live with. There's a comfortable living room and a separate kitchen. The double bedroom has its own walk-in wardrobe, which keeps clothes out of the way and the room clear. There's also a good-sized storage cupboard in the hall and a wet room with a level-access shower. It's a manageable size to look after, and you still have your own front door and the freedom to live as you like. There's a friendly community here too. The residents' lounge runs regular activities and seasonal events throughout the year. The table-service restaurant serves freshly cooked meals every day, which is handy when you don't feel like cooking. When family come to stay, they can book the guest suite for a fee. Residents also have landscaped gardens and a laundry room. The building and grounds are maintained for you, so you don't have to worry about upkeep.
